Photodynamic Therapy (PDT)     

Bhaskar G. Maiya 《Resonance》2000,5(6):15-29

In this article, key aspects related to the design and development of drugs for use in photodynamic therapy are considered. The chemistry, photochemistry and photobiology of porphyrinic and non-porphyrinic photosensitizers, as relevant to their application in clinical PDT are discussed in detail.  相似文献

Relations Among Parenting,Culture, and Prosocial Behaviors in U.S. Mexican Youth: An Integrative Socialization Approach     

Cara Streit  Gustavo Carlo  George P. Knight  Rebecca M.B. White  Sahitya Maiya 《Child development》2021,92(4):e383-e397

We examined the longitudinal relations among parental socialization practices—including acceptance or harsh parenting and ethnic socialization—ethnic identity, familism, and prosocial behaviors in a sample of U.S. Mexican youth. Participants included 462 U.S. Mexican adolescents (M_age at Wave 1 = 10.4 years old; 48.1% female), their mothers, and fathers at the 5th, 7th, 10th, and 12th grades. Results showed that maternal and paternal ethnic socialization predicted several forms of prosocial behaviors via ethnic identity and familism. Fathers’, but not mothers’, harsh parenting and acceptance had direct links to specific forms of prosocial behaviors. This study suggests the need for culturally informed theories that examine the reciprocal relations between two distinct domains of cultural socialization.  相似文献   

Photodynamic Therapy (PDT)     

Bhaskar G. Maiya 《Resonance》2000,5(4):6-18

Photodynamic Therapy (PDT) is a newly emerging modality against cancer in which a photosensitizing molecule acts against malignant tumors under the influence of light. An overview of the chemical, photochemical and biochemical basis of PDT is presented in this series of articles. In doing so, an attempt has been made to illustrate how a topic such as PDT —which is related to human health —can generate interest amongst students in interdisciplinary areas bordering between chemistry and biology. Besides providing a general introduction to PDT, details of the physical and biochemical mechanisms of photodynamic action are provided in this article.  相似文献   

Influence of aerobic treadmill exercise on blood glucose homeostasis in noninsulin dependent diabetes mellitus patients     

Shivananda Nayak  Arun Maiya  Manjunath Hande 《Indian journal of clinical biochemistry : IJCB》2005,20(1):47-51

The role of treadmill exercise on blood glucose homeostasis in noninsulin dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) were studied using males between age of 45 and 60 years (X-52), who were clinically and biochemically-confirmed cases of NIDDM were taken into study group. Control group comprised of 10 males between age group of 45 to 60 (X-53) years. All the subjects were assessed by physician and were investigated to confirm diabetic status. The whole study period was extended for 6 weeks. The significant decrease in postprandial blood sugar (44.4 mg% for the study group and 32.2mg% for the control group) with a significant inter group difference (P<0.05) was observed. The mean decrease in fasting blood sugar (39.4mg% for the study group and 27.4mg% for the control group), with a marginal inter group difference (P<0.05) was observed. The treadmill exercise was found to be a definite tool in addition to drug and diet in glycemic control.  相似文献
